Globe Production 20th play, Ghana Must Go shows on Saturday and Sunday
Much-awaited 15th Anniversary Globe Production dubbed Ghana Must Go is set to show at the Accra International Conference Centre on Saturday, May 24, and Sunday, May 25, 2025.5.23
Ghana Must Go, aimed at capitalising on the global campaign under The Big Push Ghana Project and a major activation of the Black Star Experience launched by the government a fortnight ago, will combine entertainment, culture, business, and diplomacy to position Ghana as a premier destination for investment and tourism.
‘Ghana Must Go’ is in partnership with Ministries of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, and the Foreign Affairs.
As part of this partnership, Globe Productions will stage fascinating and hilarious plays of Ghanaian stories in Africa, Europe, Asia and America, on a roadshow dubbed.
Coupled with fascinating stage performances and breathtaking storytelling, Globe Productions and its partners are hoping to ride on the back of Ghana Must Go to attract over 2,000 high-value tourists and investors in each international city.
Ghana Must Go is a comical, culturally rich and inspirational stage production that follows the journey of a tourist-turned-investor who discovers the vast opportunities, beauty and potential of Ghana.
It fuses music, dance, humour and drama to tell Ghana’s story in a way that no PowerPoint ever could, touching hearts, shifting perceptions and stirring action,” the brainchild and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Globe Productions, Latif Abubakar, said at the launch of the initiative in Accra yesterday.
The Ghana Must Go global tour happens to be the 20th stage theatrical production by Globe Productions and the caravan will start from Accra, with two days of performances with ace Ghanaian actor and theatre scholar, Adjetey Annan, leading the cast before taking the fun to the rest of the countries earmarked for visit from August this year.
Speaking at the launch held on Thursday May 15, 2025 at the Pelican Hotel in Accra, Latif Abubakar enumerated successes chalked by Globe Productions since it was established fifteen (15) years ago.
“Over the past decade and a half, Globe Productions have brought to life nineteen (19) powerful productions that have inspired, challenged and entertained people around the world. Today we present our 20th milestone production titled ‘Ghana Must Go’, the first ever play that brings to stage the Ghana story in full: who we are, what we have, and why the world must come to Ghana to experience and invest,” he said.
He said last year, they made history by taking Ghana theatre to Europe with their first-ever theatrical expedition in Madrid, Spain.
“It was a sold-out and welcomed twenty-nine (29) ambassadors – a testimony of the power of storytelling and the global hunger for authentic Ghanaian content,” he noted.
“Through this unique play, we will mobilise at least 2000 potential investors and tourists in each host city from Kenya, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, USA, UK, Canada, Nigeria, South Africa,” he revealed.
Ghanaian musician Sparqlyn is set to release another big hit.
His latest release, ‘Rosina,’ features Germany-based Ghanaian musician, video director, and sound engineer TEENO (known privately as Eric Kwame Tamakloe).
TEENO’s project ‘Signs’ was recently accepted by the Grammys for official consideration in the ‘Album of the Year’ category. Now, ‘Rosina’ is making serious waves across the airwaves.
Coming shortly after the impressive reception to his previous single ‘Fameko,’ ‘Rosina’ is already receiving strong attention from music lovers and radio listeners.
This new song carries an infectious Afrobeats and Hiplife feel while maintaining the romantic direction that characterised ‘Fameko,’ Sparqlyn’s 2026 Highlife collaboration with Ziya.
‘Fameko’ marked an important moment in Sparqlyn’s musical journey, with the love-themed highlife record receiving positive reactions from music lovers and media platforms following its June 2026 release.
The song became one of the highlights of his 2026 output, ranking high on multiple charts.
‘Fameko’ has also bagged Sparqlyn two top nominations: “Highlife Song of the Year” and “Artist of the Year” at the 2026 Stars Awards.
The combination of a romantic storyline, Afrobeats rhythm, and Hiplife influence give the song a sound that fits comfortably into the current Ghanaian music landscape.
The timing of the song’s release could also prove significant for the award-winning artiste. Sparqlyn recently secured two nominations at the 2026 Ghana Youth Empowerment Awards, where he is in contention for Youth Empowerment Advocate of the Year and Outstanding Youth Personality of the Year.
With ‘Fameko’ having established strong momentum earlier in the year and ‘Rosina’ now beginning to enjoy significant airplay, Sparqlyn appears to be ending another eventful chapter of his musical career on a high note.

Ghanaian highlife and Afrobeats singer Kuami Eugene Marfo known in showbiz circles as Kuami Eugene has urged fellow musicians and entertainers to use their influence on social media and other platforms to champion causes that positively impact society.
The award-winning artiste made the call during a UNICEF Ghana birth registration advocacy campaign in Bepoase in the Ayensuano District of the Eastern Region, where he joined officials from UNICEF Ghana and the Births and Deaths Registry to raise awareness about the importance of registering children at birth.
He explained that artistes wield significant influence and should leverage platforms such as TikTok, Facebook and Instagram to amplify important social initiatives and encourage behavioural change.
The musician, who has partnered UNICEF Ghana on several child-focused campaigns, said he had a special interest in issues affecting children and was committed to supporting efforts that improved their welfare and future opportunities.
He noted that birth registration was critical because it established a child’s legal identity and ensured recognition as a Ghanaian citizen.
The advocacy drive forms part of UNICEF Ghana’s efforts to improve birth registration rates across the country through community engagements, public education and collaboration with traditional authorities.
The musician said he remained focused on creating quality music while continuing to support social causes that contribute to national development, particularly initiatives aimed at improving the lives of children. –GNA
